FPD87310

FPD87310 Universal Interface XGA Panel Timing Controller with RSDS™ (Reduced Swing Differential Signaling) and FPD-Link PRELIMINARY May 2000 FPD87310 Universal Interface XGA Panel Timing Controller with RSDS™ (Reduced Swing Differential Signaling) and FPD-Link General Description The FPD87310 Panel Timing Controller is an integrated FPD-Link + RSDS + TFT-LCD Timing Controller. It resides on the Flat Panel Display and provides the interface signal routing and Timing Control between Graphics or Video Controllers and a TFT-LCD system. FPD-Link, a low power, low EMI (ElectroMagnetic Interference) interface is used between this Controller and the Host system. A RSDS (Reduced Swing Differential Signaling) Column Driver interface is used between the Timing Controller and the Column Drivers. Programmable, General Purpose Outputs provide Row and Column Driver control. The FPD87310 is configured via metal mask initialization value or an optional external serial EEPROM. Reserved space in the EEPROM is available for display identification information. The system can access the EEPROM to read the display identification data or program initialization values used by the FPD87310. This single 9-bit+CLK differential bus conveys the 18 bits color data for XGA panels at 130 Mb/s when using VESA 60 Hz standard timing.
